Do eggrolls contain meat?!
im a vegetarian and dont know if they do or not!. please help!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
I have found many times it depends on where you go!. Most do contain meat!. Some contain egg and other animal products!. Making it very hard for the vegitarian to decide which to choose!.
Spring rolls are usually made with vegetables!. Though, you should ask about them too because some places make them by dipping the outer tortilla in a egg base and then frying!.
When in doubt ask your server!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
